Please note:

To set column constraints of a board:

Edit the constraints, as described in the following table.

Managing your backlog in the first column of your Kanban board is easy to do— as long as there are only a few issues in your backlog. As your backlog grows, viewing and scrolling through these issues can become difficult.
